School of Hope & Hope Home Schooling
Principal's Message
It is that time of year again. Where has the time gone? Another school year has come and gone! Time for students (and teachers!) to take a little break from school, and enjoy time with friends and family. (Unless of course you have decided to take summer school courses; then hopefully you can get a head start on next school year.) This has been a great year at School of Hope and Hope Home Schooling. I have loved the opportunity to meet many new families and students from across our great province and it was always nice speaking with those I got to know last year. You are the people who make our school so great.
I want to send a huge thank you to all the wonderful staff at School of Hope and Hope Home Schooling who care so much for our students. They work tirelessly behind the scenes to help make your child’s educational experience a meaningful one. Whether it is having extracurricular activities, going on field trips or putting in hours of marking; our teachers truly care.
Please don’t forget to register and save your spot for next year! This allows us to have our plans in place come start-up in September. You can register from links on our website, and our office staff is there all summer to help out!
• Final Report Cards have been emailed.
• Grade 7-12 honour roll certificates will be mailed out to students whose averages make them eligible; congratulations!
• Congratulations also to all those who finished their schooling this year! Whether your schooling journey has finished, or you have earned a diploma, we want to wish you all the best as you launch into new beginnings!
We want to thank you for the privilege of being able to serve your family. We pray everyone has a safe and restful summer, and hope to see you again next year!
"Commit to the lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans." – Proverbs 16:3
God Bless,
Scott MacDonald, Michel Despins and Alicia Rudkowsky
